I mean... how?  It's fine, but it seems like it's missed some huge opportunities to stand out and it was truly awful at launch.

How you say?  Because Music Tech makes their money off of advertising and as well, there weren't a lot of sequencers released in 2020.

It is, absolutely, the best controller I bought in 2020.

IDK, I love it, I'm glad i didn't give up on it. I'm looking forward to 2.0 firmware like the rest of us, but in the meantime I've had a great time with it.

I too am very much loving it. And, as everyone, looking forward to 2.0.
I'm hoping they've extended the pattern length by 4 bars.  :)

I'm loving it a whole lot more after the last update - now that the USB midi is usable!

Before it was a source of much frustration :P
it would swap my midi "note on" and "note off" commands around (only on the USB connection) and delay them by random amounts

and boy, was that a head f^^k!

So glad that was fixed
